I have not even read this thread until today because I thought it was a joke from the title. But I see someone is serious about it.

	Herbstreet,Collin Cowherd,Jim Rome and other national pundits are jumping on the Big Orange bangwagon as Vol stock continues to rise. Even Paul Finebaum is becoming impressed and he has been Lane's biggest critic. I predict Lane will win a national title in the next five years and goes back to the NFL, but in the meantime there will be good times in Knoxville. Thank you.

Seems like everyone was jumping on the Ole Miss bandwagon about this time last year as well. We know how that one turned out.

	When he said Urban was cheating he was talking to a BOOSTER club. I know this is not a sympathetic audience, but I can promise UT fans are loving it and loving him.

From living in the Knoxville area for 6 years and dealing with vol fans on a daily basis during that time, I believe this is true.
I also believe that the fans are loving him for complaining about being cheated out of a win against Bama. Cause everyone knows that ut has never lost a game, but has been cheated out of several.

	Well, you play Chattanooga before Auburn and have a bye before LSU. Maybe Slive will force us to take it the first week of the season in the future.

Weak response. Y'all played Western Kentucky before UCLA and Ohio before allbarn. Plus, we don't have a bye before we play LSU practically EVERY YEAR.

Ah...the "traditional" team photo (albeit General Neyland's first team photos were around the Model T):

And who can forget the "tradition" of wearing black jerseys around Halloween (everyone knows the General would make uniform changes time-to-time just to woo 17 year-old recruits):

Can't wait to see more of UT traditions brought back this year that we had all forgotten about over the years.
